The group signed to Capitol Records in 1967 and at that time
Capitol misspelled their name, leaving out the "g". The Beingz were told it
would be changed on the next release if "Nobody" didn't catch on. In September
1967 "Nobody But Me" was
released and became a Billboard Top 40 hit, which meant that
Capitol would not correct the spelling, so they were stuck with The Human Beinz,
a name they hated then and still do. "Nobody But Me" (first written and recorded
by The Isley Brothers) peaked at #8 in January 1968. An album, Nobody but me,
followed. The Beinz' next single, "Turn On Your Love Light," shot to #1 (for six weeks) in Japan.
